Unbound: a Literary Series with BAM and Greenlight Bookstore Returns with Jonathan Lethem (Sep 10) and Richard Dawkins (Sep 23) Unbound: A Literary Series with BAM and Greenlight Bookstore returns with Jonathan Lethem (Sep 10) and Richard Dawkins (Sep 23) Brooklyn, NY/June 13, 2013—Unbound: A Literary Series with BAM and Greenlight Bookstore returns for a second season of unique talks. Building on the success of the first season, this year Unbound presents two highly anticipated book launches by contemporary authors. Greenlight Bookstore co-owner Jessica Stockton Bagnulo said, “Greenlight is excited about the continuing development of the Unbound series, a great collaborative project with our partners at BAM. With more star-studded book launch events happening this season, the series is becoming part of Brooklyn's— and New York's—literary fabric, and offers a great opportunity to reach Brooklyn's —and BAM's—sophisticated cultural audiences. We can't wait to see what comes next!” BAM Vice President of Education & Humanities Stephanie Hughley adds, “Unbound has been a remarkable addition to our humanities programs at BAM and we’re thrilled to continue our collaboration with Greenlight Bookstore on the series this year. Unbound reflects BAM’s commitment to creative dialogue and connects audiences to the rich contributions of our literary community.” Jonathan Lethem (Sep 10), American author of The New York Times bestseller The Fortress of Solitude, returns to his native Brooklyn for the launch of his latest work, Dissident Gardens. Spanning several decades—from parlor communism of the 1930s up to the current Occupy Movement—Dissident Gardens is both an epic and a family saga tracing the legacy of communism in America through three generations of radicals. English evolutionary biologist, devout atheist, and author Richard Dawkins (Sep 23) celebrates the launch of An Appetite for Wonder: The Making of a Scientist. His most recent book takes an intimate look at his childhood, intellectual development—from his birth in colonial Kenya through his education at Oxford— and makings of one of the world’s foremost authorities on evolution. Tickets to Unbound: A Literary Series with BAM and Greenlight Bookstore are $40 and include a copy of the author’s new book. Tickets to the event only (not including a copy of the book) are $25. Jonathan Lethem Launch of Dissident Gardens Sept 10 at 7:30pm BAM Harvey Theater (651 Fulton St) Tickets: $40 (includes a copy of the book); $25 (event only) Richard Dawkins Launch of An Appetite for Wonder: The Making of a Scientist Mon Sept 23 at 7:30pm BAM Harvey Theater (651 Fulton St) Tickets: $40 (includes a copy of the book); $25 (event only) Jonathan Lethem is The New York Times best-selling author of nine novels, including Chronic City, The Fortress of Solitude, Motherless Brooklyn, and the nonfiction collection The Ecstasy of Influence, a National Book Critics Circle Award finalist. A recipient of the MacArthur Fellowship and winner of the National Book Critics Circle Award for Fiction, Lethem’s work has appeared in The New Yorker, Harper’s, Rolling Stone, Esquire, and The New York Times, among other publications. Richard Dawkins is a fellow of the Royal Society and was the inaugural holder of the Charles Simonyi Chair of Public Understanding of Science at Oxford University. He is the acclaimed author of many books including The Selfish Gene, Climbing Mount Improbable, Unweaving the Rainbow, The Ancestor’s Tale, The God Delusion, and The Greatest Show on Earth. He is the recipient of numerous honors and awards, including the Royal Society of Literature Award (1987), the Michael Faraday Award of the Royal Society (1990), the Kistler Prize (2001), the Shakespeare Prize (2005), the Lewis Thomas Prize for Writing about Science (2006), the Galaxy British Book Awards Author of the Year Award (2007), and, most valuable of all, the International Cosmos Prize of Japan.

  • The Selfish Gene by Richard Dawkins Is Another
    BOOKS & ARTS COMMENT ooks about science tend to fall into two categories: those that explain it to lay people in the hope of cultivat- Bing a wide readership, and those that try to persuade fellow scientists to support a new theory, usually with equations. Books that achieve both — changing science and reach- ing the public — are rare. Charles Darwin’s On the Origin of Species (1859) was one. The Selfish Gene by Richard Dawkins is another. From the moment of its publication 40 years ago, it has been a sparkling best-seller and a TERRY SMITH/THE LIFE IMAGES COLLECTION/GETTY SMITH/THE LIFE IMAGES TERRY scientific game-changer. The gene-centred view of evolution that Dawkins championed and crystallized is now central both to evolutionary theoriz- ing and to lay commentaries on natural history such as wildlife documentaries. A bird or a bee risks its life and health to bring its offspring into the world not to help itself, and certainly not to help its species — the prevailing, lazy thinking of the 1960s, even among luminaries of evolution such as Julian Huxley and Konrad Lorenz — but (uncon- sciously) so that its genes go on. Genes that cause birds and bees to breed survive at the expense of other genes. No other explana- tion makes sense, although some insist that there are other ways to tell the story (see K. Laland et al. Nature 514, 161–164; 2014). What stood out was Dawkins’s radical insistence that the digital information in a gene is effectively immortal and must be the primary unit of selection.

  • Jonathan Lethem
    Jonathan Lethem Jonathan Allen Lethem wurde 1964 in Brooklyn, New York, geboren. Der Autor zahlreicher Romane, Essays und Kurzgeschichten entwickelte schon in jungen Jahren ein Interesse an Literatur. Vor allem das Lesen von Science Fiction prägte ihn dauerhaft. Nach Abbruch eines Kunststudiums in Vermont zog er 1984 nach Kalifornien, wo er sich mit Jobs in Buchläden über Wasser hielt. Sein erster Roman, Gun, with Occasional Music, wurde 1994 veröffentlicht. Der Verkauf der Verfilmungsrechte des Romans ermöglichte Lethem, seine Arbeit in den Buchläden aufzugeben und sich ganz dem Schreiben zu widmen. In den 1990er Jahren veröffentlichte er weitere Romane sowie einen Band mit Kurzgeschichten. 1996 zog Lethem zurück in seine Heimatstadt Brooklyn. 1999 veröffentlichte er mit Motherless Brooklyn einen Roman, der zum Bestseller avancierte, zahlreiche Preise erhielt und Lethem zum Durchbruch bei der Kritik verhalf. 2009 folgte mit Chronic City ein weiterer Stadtroman, den die New York Times auf die Liste der zehn besten Werke des Jahres stellte. Derzeit lebt Lethem mit seiner Familie in Brooklyn und Berwick, Maine. Seit 2011 unterrichtet er als Nachfolger von David Foster Wallace Kreatives Schreiben am Pomona College in Kalifornien.

Richard Dawkins Evolutionary Biologist; Emeritus Professor of the Public Understanding of Science, Oxford; Co-Author, with Yan Wong, The Ancestor’s Tale (Second Edition); Author, The Selfish Gene; The God Delusion; An Appetite For Wonder The Genetic Book of the Dead Natural Selection equips every living creature with the genes that enabled its ancestors—a literally unbroken line of them—to survive in their environments. To the extent that present environments resemble those of the ancestors, to that extent is a modern animal well equipped to survive and pass on the same genes. The ‘adaptations’ of an animal, its anatomical details, instincts and internal biochemistry, are a series of keys that exquisitely fit the locks that constituted its ancestral environments. Given a key, you can reconstruct the lock that it fits. Given an animal, you should be able to reconstruct the environments in which its ancestors survived. A knowledgeable zoologist, handed a previously unknown animal, can reconstruct some of the locks that its keys are equipped to open.

  • Why Accept the Pythagorean Theorem?
    CHRISTIAN RESEARCH INSTITUTE PO Box 8500, Charlotte, NC 28271 Effective Evangelism: JAE393 WHY ACCEPT THE PYTHAGOREAN THEOREM? by Paul A. Nelson This article first appeared in the Effective Evangelism column of the CHRISTIAN RESEARCH JOURNAL, volume 39, number 03 (2016). For further information or to subscribe to the CHRISTIAN RESEARCH JOURNAL, go to: http://www.equip.org/christian-research-journal/. Suppose I said that you knew the Pythagorean theorem (A2 + B2 = C2) because you were educated in the United States, where students routinely study geometry. “You’re right, Paul,” you would probably reply, wondering if we could perhaps find something more interesting to discuss. But then I add that because you had to learn the Pythagorean theorem, you have no good reason to believe the theorem is true. You were taught it as a matter of standard educational practice, leaving you no choice but to memorize it. Anything soaked up from one’s culture in that fashion, however, should be doubted. Now you’re puzzled. The Pythagorean theorem follows deductively from the axioms of Euclidean geometry, you point out, but how or when one learns those axioms is irrelevant to the truth of the theorems derived from them. A2 + B2 = C2 is true as a proposition of geometry, whether one memorized it in a math classroom, or proved it thousands of years earlier on a sunny afternoon in ancient Alexandria. Logicians have a name for your argument, you tell me. They call it the genetic fallacy. Such arguments are fallacious because they confuse the causal origin of one’s beliefs (their genesis) with the entirely independent question of whether those beliefs are true.
